Veterans Legal Justice

Right
now, over 99,000 veterans live in our state, many of whom
are retired and living in poverty.

Veterans
Legal Justice launched operations and began accepting clients for intake on
Veterans Day, 2022. We service veterans, service members, and their families,
by providing referrals to lawyers in virtually every area of the law. Veterans
Legal Justice stands out among veterans organizations because we define
"veteran" a bit differently. The way we see it, if you or a member of
your family have put on the uniform, even one day, you can come to us and get
help with any legal needs.

We
can receive intake inquiries by phone or email. Please note that we are not a
law firm, and cannot provide legal counsel ourselves; however, we pride
ourselves on knowing the best of the best lawyers in the State of New
Hampshire, and we will happily connect you with one of them, according to your
needs. We have volunteers operating the phone line during business hours, all
of whom have been trained in our specific method of intake, as well as veterans
cultural awareness. All voice messages are automatically transcribed, so if you
are unable to reach someone, or call outside of business hours, rest assured
that your message was received, and someone will be getting back to you soon!

Once
your intake inquiry is received, volunteers, in coordination with Veterans
Legal Justice's board of directors, will correspond with one of New Hampshire's
finest lawyers in the area of law that most fits your needs.

Veterans
Legal Justice was honored to receive an invitation to the 2022 Seacoast
Veterans Conference at Service Credit Union in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
There, Larry Vogelman, one of our board members and founding members, had the
privilege of announcing the organization's launch.

Veterans Legal Justice is the only organization in New Hampshire
specifically providing comprehensive legal services to veterans. We strive
to provide top quality service to those who have bravely served our country at
no-cost.

Our impact is far reaching:

• VLJ serves 200+
  veterans each year, and has thus far served 2,000 veterans from all 10
  counties in New Hampshire.

• VLJ resolves a wide
  range of legal matters for our veterans including family law,
  landlord-tenant disputes, domestic violence, and select criminal matters.

 Every
day, we receive heartbreaking calls from New Hampshire veterans. From the
twenty-four year Navy veteran who misses spending time with his now adult
children and needs help accessing his VA benefits to the medically discharged
single mom fighting an eviction because of a misunderstanding with the
landlord, we are ready to jump in and help at a moment's notice. You can help
make sure veterans like these fine folks do not have to face one more scary
challenge.

Help
us give the gift of legal justice today, because you can help a veteran keep
their home, access work opportunities, or even save a life.

As of this month, we are now accepting Venmo donations as well!
